Today is Stamp Out Hunger! Did you know that 1 in 6 Americans are facing hunger? Or that nearly 6 million Americans are fed by food banks each week? Or that 1 in 7 Americans use SNAP (food stamps) benefits?

Those are frightening statistics and there is no need for them. There is more than enough food in this country for everyone.

If your postal carrier has not arrived yet today, there is still time to participate. Even if they have arrived, you can still go to your local post office and drop off a bag of food.

The day is still young and we all have a chance to do something good in a very easy, yet meaningful way.
